Planning & Development Services 2300 Virginia Avenue Ft. Pierce, FL 34982 Dear Ms. Vargas Barrios: Re: Case #71939 — Permit #1004-0072 Pursuant to our telephone call of April 2, 2012 and your letter dated March 7, 2012, 1 contacted Michael Roberts, owner of Special Forces, the GC we contracted to perform the concrete restoration project at The Miramar. He informed me that he would take care of the situation. I have been in contact with Michael Roberts no less than twice a week since mid -March in an attempt to conclude this situation. Over the past weekend (March 31 /April 1) 1 reviewed the paperwork myself. I found that Permit #1004-0072 incorrectly identifies the unit numbers being worked on; in some cases the unit numbers do not exist. It appears that when the original permit was filed the majority of unit numbers were inverted, 602 vs. 206, 603 vs. 306, 609 vs. 906, 610 vs. 1006, etc. Briefly, in the order as they appear on the Permit, units #602, 603, 604, and 605 are inside units and not part of the restoration project. One unit, #606, is in the south end stack and has been restored and final inspected. (Units #607, 608, 609, 610, and 611 do not exist.) The unit numbers for the south end stack, #206, 306, 406, 506, 606, 706, 806, 906, 1006, and 1106, were restored and final inspected. The inspection reports submitted to your office may seem a bit ambiguous due to the aforementioned numbering conflict. I spoke with John 'D. Breitenbach, P.E., the Threshold Engineer (Inspector) on this project. Mr. Breitenbach will produce an additional report indicating all units in the south end stack have been restored and inspected and deemed satisfactory to the specifications prepared by CMS Engineers, LLC, the Engineer of Record. I believe this is The Miramar's only open building permit. If there are any other open permits in the north end stack or any other place, please let me know as soon as possible. I request this, as Mr. Breitenbach was the Threshold Engineer for both the north as well as the south end stacks. If additional documentation is required from Mr. Breitenbach, I would like to do this all at once. Insofar as the deadline of April 9t I is. concerned, again I am working with Special Forces who is working with your Permitting Dept. to remedy this. I am not as yet sure how- long this will take to conclude. I would appreciate a 60-day extension on this matter. To make this request more reasonable, Mr. Breitenbach would issue a letter stating that both end stacks have been inspected to conform to all specifications. I feel confident that I could get this letter from Mr. Breitenbach; this week. Please confirm receipt of this letter, either by e-mail (KTTLocka-aol.com) or telephone, (772.229.2429 or 772.631.2343) and to whether the letter re- confirming that the #6 stack was completed is all that is required from Mr. Breitenbach. I will be working closely with Michael Roberts 'to assure that the permitting requirements are met as soon as ,possible. Thank you for your cooperation. Very truly yours, Kenneth T.
